    How do folks react to your hat wearing?

    Okay I’ll admit it - I check the weather app and if there’s rain in the forecast then I wear a rain hat.

    How do folks react to your hat wearing?

    Yeah that’s what I thought too. But I’m not the umbrella type. No need for an umbrella when I’ve got a hat. Ha!

    How do folks react to your hat wearing?

    Well we just got home from eating tonight at one of our downtown pubs. We were getting ready to leave and this old guy stopped me and said “hey I love your hat.” I said “well thanks”. Then he followed up by saying “my wife said if I wore a hat like that then I would be going out alone.” I...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Heading out for a morning dark roast coffee in a Stetson bowler. I bought this one new a couple of years ago right after receiving the gray version of the same hat. I love wearing these, and they’re perfect for driving an open top Jeep. Bowlers do seem to love the wind.

    I think that's a great-looking Open Road. I like what you did with it.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    September is bittersweet to me as it points to summer’s end, but then we do get some nice holidays and I can start transitioning from straw to felt hats again. Today isn’t supposed to go higher than the 70’s here so felt it is! This is a Bowler that I picked up in late June and has been too hot...

    Thank you! Yes I have been looking at a lot of pictures and thought it may be somewhere 50's ish. I also agree it has some Whippet going on there. I really do like the brim width of 2 1/8 to 2 1/4. It's got a nice balance between crown and brim that I think would look good on anybody. My...

    Post New Hats Here!

    Just arrived: I have no idea what I have here except that it’s a vintage Stetson with a box. There’s a blue/green stain at the back on the seam between the brim and crown. It is very snug on my head so I’m wearing it around anyway in hopes it’ll loosen up a bit. My wife will love it if it...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    Thanks SBG. I'm relatively new to this and don't know a lot about Resistols in general, but some of you guys are wearing amazing hats worth a fortune. Those are top tier for sure! This one was a Goodwill find but I love it and it fits like it was custom made for my head.

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    I’m wearing a felt Resistol (have no idea about age) since it’s overcast and cooler today. I brought along my Conner beater rain hat in case we get heavy rain while I’m out. A couple of young employees at the hardware store came up to me and one said “Hey we just wanted to tell you that hat is...

    What Hat Are You Wearing Today ?

    I’m getting the most out of my straws while I can this year. I’m in Kure Beach NC with my trusty Stetson Latte. This hat wears well and is tough as a pine knot in the durability department. It’s aerodynamic too for beach breezes and my Jeep with the top off. Not exactly high end compared to...

    It’s a fun debate though right? Long running threads seem to be normal here rather than the exception. I like being able to see the way they evolve over time.
